I have a 5 1/2" Target and I am needing something finer than the stock front sight. Does anyone make like an express sight with a bead or similar?

Check Brownell's catalogue and look at the fiber optic front sights. As a last resort, you can have the sides of a regular one narrowed then have it reblued. Before bluing, remove any burrs and the present blued finish. A dip in mild acid such as muriatic used for cleaning bricks and mortar will yield a dull finish that will make for no reflections and better aiming. After the rinse from the acid, be sure to preserve it with WD-40 or oil until it reaches the person that will reblue it. Hope you get good results.

No pics on this link, but info should still but should still be helpful!
The article mentions the sights from a Single-Six Hunter. Might be the quickest/easiest route(?).
